Even the NY Times has
problems with Dean. They are criticizing him for going to Alaska to address the Democrats there. Too few Dems there in the Times mind for the DNC to waste it's chairman's time there. I guess they aren't a national party just a party for states with a large percentage of Democrats.
It seemed somewhat bizarre, then, when Howard Dean, the chairman of the Democratic National Committee,
chose to make the long odyssey to Alaska at the end of May, near what
was the beginning of one of the most intense and closely contested
national election campaigns in memory, when every other Democrat in
Washington was talking about potentially decisive states like Ohio, Pennsylvania and Connecticut.
I mean it's not like Bush didn't write off super blue states like California or New York during an election year. Right?
